Python 3.13. Python 3.8 and 3.9 support has been dropped.

Track API changes in Mathics3 Scanner 9.0.0

Make CLI options more like wolframscript. This is an incompatible change. Single-dash long options like -help, -file
are now accepted. The short option -f is associated with -file rather than --fullform; -Fis now used for Fullform.
Option --read with alias -r is now -code and short option -c.

Toggling Autobrace using the function key F4 has been fixed. Function key F1 provides some rudimentary help in the bottom bar.

Match \( with \) in prompt-toolkit mode

• --edit-mode [emacs|vi] or was added to mathicsscript to specify which initial edit mode for prompt-toolkit to start in
• --post-mortem was added mathicsscript to go into a trepan3k debugger on error
• Add aliases for all of the 100 or so "no-meaning" operators
• Allow 2D rendering from asymptote
• Add/update material in README's and screencast

• Adjust for Mathics3 core 7.0.0 API
• Drop support for 3.6 and 3.7 and add support for 3.11
• Use pyproject.toml for packaging to be able to support 3.12

Adjust for Mathics3 core 6.0.0 API

• Adjust for Mathics3 core 5.0.0 API
• Fixed autobrace and rewritten with Condition from prompt_toolkit.filter
• Add $GroupAutoComplete setting (default True) to disable completing closer group symbol. Feature provided by DUO Labs and Alessandro Piras.
• Remove bindings for the right brackets
• For prompt-toolkit and GNU Readline users, we allow a user input binding file in CONFIGDIR/inputrc (e.g. ~/.config/mathicsscript/inputrc).
  You can set the location this file via environment variable MATHICS_INPUTRC
• Handle version-getting timeout better
• Python 3.6 tolerance
• Create code of conduct
• Some code linting

• Handle images via PNG and matplotlib
• Packaging: include matplotlib in full install
• Customize Asymptote configuration and add a psviewer that removes eps trash
• Bump minimum Mathics core version to 4.0.0
• Bug fix: Check if self has session attribute in asy.__del__

• Packaging issues: getting setttings.m file into distribution and other missing files
• More pervasive handling of import errors

• 3D Graphics is now handled if Asymptote is installed.
• Settings`$UseMatplotlib and Settings`$UseAsymptote were added. The can disable the use of matplotlib and Asymptote when those are available.

Fix packaging issues and be more tolerant matplotlib-related errors.

• Many 2D plots and graphs can now be viewed via a matplotlib shell! PR #40. _Make sure install using the _full) package which includes optional packages, like matplotlib; e.g. pip install mathicsscript[full]
• In prompt-toolkit:
  • Better word-boundary detection for NamedCharacters, Symbols
  • Include grouping start symbols "(", "{", "[" in detection
